The French Patriotic League.
GIN. FAIDHERBBs RESIGNATION CAUSES A SENSATION
IN PABIs-BouLAN0ER, HOWEVER, Is TIE IDOL OF
THE LEAGUE.
The resignation Of Gen. Faidherbe from the
French Patriotic League owing, as he alleged, to
the recently changed attitude OF the organization,
has created sensation In Paris. One OF the rea-
sons alleged for his resignation is that the league
committed itself to the policy advocated for years
by n. Katkon. in sending messages OF coincidence
to the family OF the Russian dead editor and fol-
lowing them up with q vote OF sending represen-
tattves OF the league to be present at the funeral
but In what manner this action conflicts with the
answering anti-GermAn attitude the league has
occupied from the date Of Its organization to the
present time Is not altogether plain. The leaders
OF the league express no regret at the generals
severance or his connection with the organization,
and are enrolling hundreds upon hundreds OF MEM
bers throughout France daily; meetings are held
nightly, and more activity Is observable in respect
OF perfecting members In the use Of firearms than
at any previous time. The action of Gen. Boulan-
ger In rendering his coincidence to Nine. Katkon
has greatly Increased the enthusiasm OF the league
for his return to power, and the enemies OF the
commander OF the 18th corps unhesitatingly as
sert that he waited until the league had rendered
its sympathy before Offering his own, In order to
score another point in the game he Is playing with
the popularity OF the masses as the stakes The
Patriotic League Is q powerful organization, and
BOulanger Is It's ideal. Whether the ideal will ever
call upon his WorShiperS TO follow him across the
German border remains to be seen.

Quickly appearing in the street Mrs. DrummOnd

agree upon some measure that both
the Commissioners and the Committee
OF One Hundred would urge before

other conferences will be held. The Twlning BILL
agreed upon by the South Washington Association,
was discussed, and Col Ludlow explained at some
length the provisions OF the bill prepared by the
Commissioners and offered in Congress at the last
session. This bill would bring the Baltimore and
Ohio road to junction with the Baltimore and
Potomac, by taking 1t down the line Of l1th street
east by means OF a tunnel. This measure, the
commissioners regarded, as more practicable than
the others suggested. The question OF the loca-
